Waking up to the news in Taiwan this morning (830am thurs) and not being shocked by this at all might be the most depressing part.
This is a terrible part of American history and we all saw it coming. (except, apparently, all the police on th capitol.)
It's not the police's fault. Every single officer was on duty today. Same with the Capitol and Park police. There were just not enough.
Dude...Seriously..You saw what police departments across the country did in response to people walking down the street in solidarity for racial justice. There are videos of the police opening barricades for these looney tunes. Did they run out of teargas, rubber bullets riot geat and brutality? It absolutely was a short falling of the police.
White Supremacy and White Privilege in this country are out of control. It ain't no lie "some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses" is a reality, but it is a lot more than some. Joy Ann is spot on. If this was anything other than a mob of white terrorists there would be violence mass arrests and police brutality. All these people should be arrested...13 arrests..what a shithole country. Truly two systems of justice at play.
Chuck needs to buttonhole Susan Collins and Claire McCaskill and get them to switch sides. They’re in their final terms and don’t identify with Moscow Mitchy Baby’s Tricky Team Trump TREASON Tax Cheat’s party. Why not flip?

McCaskill is a dem. And retired. Do you mean Murkowski?
He's saying the cops had no problem coming out in force against racial justice, but when its white terrorists they roll over, park their tanks and hang up their riot gear and tear gas and bullets.
agreed. they have knowledge of permits and how many people coming. they have an inauguration in 2 weeks and they daily protect the US govt. today's response by law enforcement and govt was b.s.
She made a great point - States' rights. These racists lovvvved to harp on states right so they're left alone. Now all of a sudden they yearn for the opposite when it comes to their states certifying their elections. By GOP state run election boards no less!
This is NOT AT ALL to imply that all that happened today was ok. A crazy radical group overtook our nation’s capital.
I do, however, ponder, given the extreme political volatility in these times, if the shoe were on the other foot, and Trump had won the election, would a similar protest and riot event have been carried out by another opposite extremist group? 🤔
Nope sorry we peaceful protested we realized we lost and Obama had trump to the White House , peaceful transition of power.
Don’t try to turn it around it was a hellish four years and had he won it would have been a gut punch but no storming the capital and being domestic terrorist trying to tear down an election.
Never been more disappointed with my country than today

That's not the point I was making. The question was where were DC police. And the answer is on duty. I saw an interview with the DC mayor this morning and she said all officers were on duty today.

Yup, I meant Murkowski and maybe was picturing Ernst from Iowa, unless she’s from Nebraska? I need a drink.

Being on duty is different from doing your job. They dropped the ball purposefully or not. Clearly they have a history of mobilizing swiftly against a certain type of person or movement. For whatever reason they were less prepared for violent terrorists than people advocating for racial justice...Either way it is pathetic.
twitter needs to ban him immediately. he is talking out of both sides of his mouth. stoking anger about a stolen election then wink wink nod go home in peace.
he is incapable of doing the simplest of tasks.
I just heard that his account has been Locked for 12 hours.
Yes and if his videos/posts are not deleted he will remained banned. He either has to go into his account and admit he was wrong and delete them or he will be off of Twitter for ever.
Think he would've been Banned a long time ago, if he wasn't the President?
I wonder if the newly elected house member from Colorado still plans on showing up with her gun on her hip. You know, to intimidate her colleagues and show how tough she is?

there's video of some of those POS cops picking up the barriers and welcoming those terrorists into the capital with open arms.
sickening. they should all be fired and tried for treason.

Protest? Very likely. Storm and enter the Capitol? Doubtful.
The bigger question I've been wondering about is, How in the hell did our nations Capitol get invaded by this mob in the first place? How could that happen? Here in America? WTF?

No the failure appears to be on DHS and DOD for not deploying. Metro DC was there.
Woman shot and killed was climbing through a broken window inside the Capitol building. Sounds like house or senate chamber or holding room they gathered in. According to a witness interviewed by AC on CNN.

Yeah just saw that. Why didn't Cooper ask them what the hell they were trying to accomplish?

The real irony is these same fucking terrorists would support a cop - or anyone for that matter - for having an itchy trigger finger if someone were to break into that person's home and felt the need to shoot.
